For those that moved out of your In-laws house.

Just out of curiosity, what did you do with the funiture that was in the common area? Say there was certain funiture that was yours/your husband, did you take it with you or did you leave it there? How did you and the in-laws handle the situation?

There is no rule that one HAS to demand the sofa from under behinds. You can always take what is yours while they are not occupying it

Ye GS ko kia bemari lag gai?

Agreed as always

On second thoughts leave the furniture behinds

Re: For those that moved out of your In-laws house.

You can only take with you the furniture of your jahaiz. In-laws will never forget and forgive if you ever think of that furniture which belongs to them or their son. Period. :chai:

Re: For those that moved out of your In-laws house.

Won’t you rather furnish your new place with new furniture? Why cause drama when you don’t need to?

Re: For those that moved out of your In-laws house.

If the furniture was part of your jahaiz, then you take it with you.

Any other furniture, even if your husband bought it after the wedding with is own money…ask MIL if she would like to keep it or if she wants you/your husband to take it with you. Technically this furniture should go with you BUT for the sake of peace…let your MIL decide what she prefers. If there is a piece of furniture that has sentimental value to you for whatever reason…again explain that to your MIL and ask if she would be ok with you taking it.

Jahez furniture is yours take with you
It would be awkward if you have furnished the whole house for eg and means you need to take the sofas etc that your hubby has paid for, i would probably just leave it if it means the inlaws have nothing to use. Saves arguments. Or if they want you to take then take it lol

When i moved i took my bedroom furniture as its what my mum bought me. Everything else i just said to mil she can keep or what she doesnt want etc we can sort out between hs

Courtesy never hurts.

Re: For those that moved out of your In-laws house.

I think this is the only angle of the whole living/not living with inlaws issue that has never been covered on the forum lol

Agree with with Paheli + Bellashabba..

Re: For those that moved out of your In-laws house.

How many million dollar worth is this furniture?

Re: For those that moved out of your In-laws house.

Dpends on how the moving out has been for the in-laws, if they have a bitter taste or are dealing with the idea that there son is leaving them..walk out of the door quietly without the furniture. If they are encouraging of the move take it with u!

You font want them to be upset about one more added thing. Be nice

Re: For those that moved out of your In-laws house.

Why not the other way? If we are doing everything to hurt and break rishteydaari, why not do the mukammal thing?

Re: For those that moved out of your In-laws house.

In your heart you know u r moving out for good reasons and if elders can’t understand it as of now u will try in the years by making them feel that distance doesn’t matter its the thought that counts.

If you want to be evil and completely distance urself and hurt ur husband in the process pls also go ahead and ask ur share in the property and gold etc Cuz u can hurt parents in a million ways, unfortunately u own their remote control.

Be as evil as u like, my suggestion was to maintain the good in the relationship!

Re: For those that moved out of your In-laws house.

You have a good point. In my experience, it is the kind of relationship you maintain with them that will make them receptive to your reasons. And the ones that were committed to maintaining that kind of relationship don’t even bother posting such questions. They certainly won’t be concerned about a piece of furniture. Easier said than done, I know, but not impossible. In this case, it is futile to advise the OP about the in-laws feelings. We are past that; she might as well take the furniture.

Re: For those that moved out of your In-laws house.

I would be happy to agree with you if used a word easier to understand than mukammal

Re: For those that moved out of your In-laws house.

there is always a glimmer of hope…
until of course, there is none.

Re: For those that moved out of your In-laws house.

Word! Where’s the damn like button?!
